Great point. Gallagher scored millions Infront of the Kop

Probably one for 'grinds my gears', but I swear more and more people just do not have any concept or awareness of other people and I'm not just talking about when they're glued to a phone.

 

It seems to always me be that has to move out the way for people in the street, or when I'm driving down tight roads is crazy. Like, if I just took the same attitude or approach I'd constantly be bumping into people. It's so frustrating.

I always think this week walking through crowds. Is it only me moving left or right out the way? Does everybody else just crash headlong into each other like a giant mosh pit?

I do sometimes just make things awkward and deliberately stand still in front of people to make a point, especially when they're on their phones, but it's harder to do that in a moving car when I have to swerve quickly

remember Dickov missing one after some first class time wasting from Man City.

This one came to my mind straight away. Dickov was an excellent penalty taker but chose the other way, as I recall, that day and missed. That was in front of the Kop. And Manchester City behind his old club of course.

Also what I hate now is people seem to talk on loud speaker constantly? I find it bizarre they hold their phone in front of them but don't want to talk quietly with it against their ear.

The worst is when people are on the bus, train or metro and just watching YouTube or ticktok with the sound turned up and no headphones, like they want everyone to listen to the shitty conspiracy theory video they’re watching

Especially annoying is when you're on a very wide path and a group of people are walking three or four abreast and you end up walking on a verge or in the road.

I'd like to add dog walkers with leads that are half a mile long blocking the path to this gripe about people oblivious to the world around them.

Nearly knocked a lad out at six-a-side tonight after he ran into my shoulder. Floored him and his jaw's struggling.

 

Won the ball fairly and no aggro after as it was his fault, but feel pretty nails right now, not gonna lie.

That Dickov penalty I still to this day believe he missed it on purpose.

I found it weird he changed away from his normal penalty because he'd already scored one against them earlier in the season at their place. He was usually so good, so cool, he would definitely be in my top 5 penalty takers for us.

 

He does love them though now and works for them perhaps.

Someone at yesterday’s match scanned his ticket, turned the turnstile without getting into the turnstile. Then scanned his ticket again and was obvs denied entry. Looked really confused as to what was happening. Was seriously bizarre

Football has been as interesting as ever this season but people seem to be moaning all the time.

 

PL competitive for all finishes, Spurs in a relegation scrap, Brentford chasing Europe. 

 

Us and West Brom in a battle to stay up as two of the leagues biggest clubs. Wrexham with a possible 3rd promotion in a row, Cov haven't been up for a quarter of a century.

 

The SPL title fight has been brilliant. St Mirren won the cup.

 

The quality hasn't always been there, but it's been the best for actual entertainment for a while. It's just tough being a Leicester fan.

I think in recent years at least my interest in football has become directly related to how we're doing. Years ago I used to watch every match I could in whichever league we were in, knew where everyone was in the league, and knew who everyone was. I always knew exactly when and who we were playing weeks in advance, the other day I forgot all about the Bristol game until the lineup popped up on my phone. These days I barely look at the top of the Championship table never mind the PL table. My love of football is definitely being tested at the minute!

I agree in that it is a shaken up table this year so the stories are prevalent.

However personally I've not followed as much as previous years. I think we were spoiled by the Klopp/Guardiola years of insane and relentless attacking football. Now it seems clubs are going back to the 90s of playing boring, long ball, set piece based football. That does not interest me.

Anthony Gordon said it when asked about why PL teams are (or, were!) dominating in the CL. European teams were opening up more against the PL teams, and then getting hammered. You don't see that in the PL these days, Arteta and his version of Allardyce/Pulis football is dominating. Boring. The happy clappers have won and modern football is dead, for now.

Yeah I’ve noticed this. A pavement that can comfortably accommodate 2.5 people and you’ll get a couple walking side by side, not giving a **** for you approaching.
